Q: Everyone, I was never good at knowing when the market tops out or when it hits a bottom - the bell never rings. What I know is holding the best of the best and waiting ten years, it always works. My techs are down - yawn - but in the last decade my investments are up 10 times my original investment. I will take that everyday! Many thanks for your work and I all your responses EVERYDAY! Clayton
Q: I have noted in many questions you seem to distinguish between a starting position price and a price to add to a position. What is the difference in the thought process on starting position price and adding to a position price?
Thank you, Mike
We recently settled my parents estate and the 3 sons (me included) received a fairly large transfer in the form of 5 ETFs including ZAG (9%), XEF (11%), XUS (3%), XIC (13%) and VFV (12%). This now represents almost half of the total portfolio whereas the remainder is invested in diverse stocks and some other ETFs mostly on your advice. I think you like ZAG for bonds but I’d like to ask if any of the other ETFs seem problematic to you or would you switch any with a similar focus? We also own some XQQ, WXM, IWO and VUN (all at about 2% each). Looking to retire in 10-15 years and with a pretty good risk tolerance.

Q: The last earnings were disappointing and the price trend negative for a period of time. What do you think of XTC.A and its opportunities going forward. Would you buy at this time or sell?
Q: Terrible markets with NQ in bear space. NVTA,PATH, PLTR,BL are at/near new lows. Reportedly PLTR reports before open,May 9. All in Investment a/c.,except BL in Tfsa. Thinking of selling at a loss before they get worse,which maybe offset by potential capital gain of other stocks at a later date. Appreciate u short view on each. Txs for u usual great views & services.
You are often asked if you could provide 2-3 "bargains" from the various portfolios - could you, given the current environment, provide
- 2-3 from the balanced / Income portfolios
- 2-3 outside of the portfolios (either Canadian or US please)
That you would consider a good opportunity to pick up at this time.
